    Smart Connect did not work for me on the latest beta firmware. Terrible pings and disconnect problems. Guys, I'm running Nord OpenVPN and I seem to get sporadic disconnects and slowdowns... then about 2 minutes later it just begins working smoothly again. I had the same problem with PIA L2TP...

    I have decided to drop PIA and stick with NordVPN as they have the more stable and faster OpenVPN connection. L2TP seemed to drop service every couple hours. I also reverted to the latest version of the official firmware because the beta would not allow amazon.com on NordVPN. The official...

    Another update. First of all, the VPN Fusion functionality they advertise is absolute garbage. Almost criminal to advertise it the way they do. Extremely buggy and unreliable. What I am sharing below may or may not work for you. In order to get the below results, you have to DISABLE Game...

    Does anyone have PIA VPN connected on an ASUS router? What WAN DNS entries are you using? I contacted PIA but they haven't gotten back to me :p

    Guys maybe you can help me. I got Nord VPN to work very easily. All I had to do was point to the .opvn, set up the two NordVPN WAN DNS entries, and it worked. With PIA, I point to the .opvn, pointed to the cert file, but I'm confused as to what to enter for the WAN DNS entries. I've tried...

    Another update. The beta firmware (9.0.0.4.382_19612) is a bit buggy, and there are some simple mechanics that haven't been solved yet. However, after hours of testing, I have come to discover you have to reapply VPN fusion after every router restart. This discovery will allow you to select...

    Alright, so here's another update. The beta firmware (9.0.0.4.382_19612) allowed me to set the VPN as the default connection. But now, the Exception List doesn't work. That is, any MAC address/IP address I enter into the Exception List to bypass the VPN and go straight to the internet does...

    So the beta firmware shared above seems to have solved the issue! I can set the VPN as my default connection without specifying each individual MAC address in the Exception List. Here is my current problem. When using the internet as my default connection, I get 100 Mbps down. When I use the...

    Well I happily stand corrected. I'll give it a shot.

    For the record, there is no beta firmware for the GT-AC5300 available at the moment.

    Yes I added the DNS entries provided. It does not work.

    Hi Everyone, I just got my Rapture GT-AC5300. I'm trying to set up VPN Fusion using OpenVPN. The Status says 'Connected'. My internet works when I have the standard Internet connection set as Default. When I set the OpenVPN connection as Default, internet no longer works. I talked to...
